Summary

History Of Genghis Khan


In the expansive landscape of human history, few figures loom as large as Genghis Khan. His name conjures up deeply polarized images - brutal warrior, visionary leader, ruthless conqueror, and inspired empire-builder. By charting his early life and improbable rise to power, this book aims to provide insight into the experiences that forged this polarizing, larger-than-life figure.

Rising from obscurity on the harsh Mongolian steppe, Genghis Khan would establish the largest contiguous land empire the world had ever seen. At its peak, this empire stretched from Eastern Europe to the Sea of Japan, encompassing illustrious cities like Beijing, Kabul and Baghdad within its realm.

His vision of empire, his mastery of cavalry warfare, and his skill at uniting fractious nomads under his banner transformed medieval Eurasia forever.
To comprehend the genesis of this world-changing figure, we must explore his early life and the tribulations that steeled his unyielding ambition. Born as Temüjin around 1162 CE into an atmosphere of tribal warfare, betrayal and blood feuds, his childhood was dramatically reshaped by the poisoning death of his father, leaving his family abandoned and destitute. As explored in Chapter 1, these experiences of loss and humiliation fostered in Temüjin a dream of uniting the perpetually warring Mongols into a single people.

    Hitler's Banker

    1932. The economic crisis in Germany was unprecedented—a severe recession, 6 million unemployed, and a collapse in the popularity of Chancellor Brüning, who was criticized for his lack of foresight and who stubbornly focused on a single objective—reducing public deficits and restoring the state's finances under pressure from other European countries. All the while far-right parties, which would soon take power, were experiencing an irrepressible rise.
    How can one not be struck by the similarity between the economic and political situation in Germany in 1932 and that of some Western countries in 2022?
    In a fictionalized biography tracing the astonishing career of Hjalmar Schacht, a German financial genius of the last century, Jean-François Bouchard indirectly highlights the interest in drawing inspiration from the economic methods that worked at that time. With this perspective, the current economic situation does not seem to be without a solution.
    It was the end of unemployment that became the factor of social stabilization for Adolf Hitler, and of consolidation of his power and of military hegemony. In this regard, sadly, the incredible story of Hjalmar Schacht is the most painful demonstration of this process.
